This study examined the quality characteristics of noodles prepared with Pleurotus (P.) eryngii paste. Different ratios of P. eryngii paste were added to wheat flour(15%, 30%, and 45%) in the noodle formation. Then, the noodles were evaluated in terms of their cooking, color, texture properties, and sensory properties. The weight and water absorption of the cooked noodles increased with increasing P. eryngii paste content, but the turbidity of cooking water decreased. According to texture profile analyses both the cooked and uncooked and cooked noodles had significant increases in springiness and cohesiveness with the addition of P. eryngii paste. And when compared to the control, hardness and gumminess were significantly lower in the samples containing P. eryngii paste. The lightness, redness, and yellowness of the cooked and uncooked noodles increased with increasing with increasing P. eryngii paste content. Finally sensory evaluation results indicated that the noddles containing 30% and 45% P. eryngii paste had higher quality as compared to the other samples. Overall the results suggest that P. eryngii paste is effective for improving the texture and quality of noodles.

This study investigated the quality of noodles containing different amounts of Ligularia fischeri powder (LFP). Noodles were prepared at ratios of 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7% LFP based on flour weight. Cooking quality, mechanical texture properties, and viscosity were measured, and a sensory evaluation was performed with the prepared noodles. Gelatinization points of the composite LFP-wheat flours increased. As measured via amylography, viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$, viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$ after 15 minutes, and maximum viscosity values of samples decreased, as the LFP content increased. As increasing amounts of LFP were added, the L, a, and b values decreased while color values, weight, and volume of cooked noodles increased, as did the turbidity of the soup. With regard to textural characteristics, LFP additive increased hardness, cohesiveness, and springiness, while decreasing adhesiveness. Sensory evaluation showed that high quality cooked noodles could be produced by inclusion of 3% LFP.

The effects of barnyard millet (Echinochloa spp.) content (10~30%) on wheat flour dough and noodle properties were investigated. As the amount of barnyard millet increased, the particle size and ash content of mixed flour increased, while lightness tended to decrease. The gelatinization characteristics of millet flour showed higher peak viscosity, holding strength, final viscosity, and setback compared with wheat flour. There was significant positive correlation between protein content and sedimentation volume, as well as between protein content and water absorption. As the amount of barnyard millet increased, hardness, springiness and cohesiveness of wet noodles tended to decrease. From the results of sensory evaluation, composite flours (addition up to 20% barnyard millet) were rated with a quality score for taste and overall acceptance which was comparable with the control flour.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of Hericium erinaceum (HE) powder and extract on the quality characteristics of noodles. The water binding capacity of the HE powder was higher than that of pure wheat flour. Gelatinization temperature of HE powder-wheat flours gradually were increased and initial viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$, viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$ after 15 min and maximum viscosity of those composites were decreased, as measured by a amylograph. The noodles showed decreased L values and increased a and b values with increasing HE powder in the wheat flour composite. The mechanical properties of the control cooked noodles showed the highest hardness, which decreased with the addition of HE powder. Springiness, cohesiveness, and gumminess decreased with increasing amounts of added HE powder. While the higher adhesiveness of noodles increased with more preferred than the control, and considerably the greatest overall acceptability of noodles was for those containing 2% HE powder.

I. Subject of the study A study on the nutritive value and utilization of powdered seaweeds. II. Purpose and Importance of the study A. In Korea the shortage of food will be inevitable by the rapidly growing population. It will be very important study to develop a new food from the seaweeds which were not used hitherto for human consumption. B. The several kinds of seaweeds have been used by man in Korea mainly as side-dishes. However, a properly powdered seaweed will enable itself to be a good supplement or mixture to certain cereal flours. C. By adding the powdered seaweed to any cereals which have long been staple foods in this country the two fold benefits; saving of cereals and change of dietary pattern, will be secured. III. Objects and scope of the study A. Objects of the study The objects will come under four items. 1. To develop a powdered seaweed as a new food from the seaweeds which have been not used for human consumption. 2. To evaluate the nutritional quality of the products the analysis for chemical composition and animal feeding experiment will be conducted. 3. Experimental cocking and accepability test will be conducted for the powdered products to evaluate the value as food stuff. 4. Sanitary test and also economical analysis will be conducted for the powdered products. B. Scope of the study 1. Production of seaweed powders Sargassum fulvellum growing in eastern coast and Sargassum patens C.A. in southern coast were used as the material for the powders. These algae, which have been not used for human consumption, were pulverized through the processes of washing, drying, pulverization, etc. 2. Nutritional experiments a. Chemical composition Proximate components (water, protein, fat, cellulose, sugar, ash, salt), minerals (calcium, phosphorus, iron, iodine), vitamins (A, $B_1,\;B_2$ niacin, C) and amino acids were analyzed for the seaweed powders. b. Animal feeding experiment Weaning 160 rats (80 male and 80 female rats) were used as experimental animals, dividing them into 16 groups, 10 rats each group. Each group was fed for 12 weeks on cereal diet (Wheat flour, rice powder, barley powder, potato powder, corn flour) with the supplementary levels of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 30% of the seaweed powder. After the feeding the growth, feed efficiency ratio, protain efficiency ratio and ,organs weights were checked and urine analysis, feces analysis and serum analysis were also conducted. 3. Experimental cooking and acceptability test a. Several basic studies were conducted to find the characteristics of the seaweed powder. b. 17 kinds of Korean dishes and 9 kinds of foreign dishes were prepared with cereal flours (wheat, rice, barley, potato, corn) with the supplementary levels of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 30% of the seaweed powder. c. Acceptability test for the dishes was conducted according to plank's Form. 4. Sanitary test The heavy metals (Cd, Pb, As, Hg) in the seaweed powders were determined. 5. Economical analysis The retail price of the seaweed powder was compared with those of other cereals in the market. And also economical analysis was made from the nutritional point of view, calculating the body weight gained in grams per unit price of each feeding diet. IV. Results of the study and the suggestion for application A. Chemical composition 1. There is no any big difference in proximate components between powders of Sargassum fulvellum in eastern coast and Sargassum patens C.A. in southern coast. Seasonal difference is also not significant. Higher levels of protein, cellulose, ash and salt were found in the powders compared with common cereal foods. 2. The levels of calcium (Ca) and iron (Fe) in the powders were significantly higher than common cereal foods and also rich in iodine (I). Existence of vitamin A and vitamin C in the Powders is different point from cereal foods. Vitamin $B_1\;and\;B_2$ are also relatively rich in the powders.'Vitamin A in ·Sargassum fulvellum is high and the levels of some minerals and vitamins are seemed4 to be some influenced by seasons. 3. In the amino acid composition methionine, isoleucine, Iysine and valine are limiting amino acids. The protein qualities of Sargassum fulvellum and Sargassum patens C.A. are seemed to be .almost same and generally ·good. Seasonal difference in amino acid composition was found. B. Animal feeding experiment 1. The best growth was found at.10% supplemental level of the seaweed Powder and lower growth rate was shown at 30% level. 2. It was shown that 15% supplemental level of the Seaweed powder seems to fulfil, to some extent the mineral requirement of the animals. 3. No any changes were found in organs development except that, in kidney, there found decreasing in weight by increasing the supplemental level of the seaweed powder. 4. There is no any significant changes in nitrogen retention, serum cholesterol, serum calcium and urinary calcium in each supplemental level of the seaweed powder. 5. In animal feeding experiment it was concluded that $5%{\sim}15%$ levels supplementation of the seaweed powder are possible. C. Experimental cooking and acceptability test 1. The seaweed powder showed to be utilized more excellently in foreign cookings than in Korean cookings. Higher supplemental level of seaweed was passible in foreign cookings. 2. Hae-Jo-Kang and Jeon-Byung were more excellent than Song-Pyun, wheat cake, Soo-Je-Bee and wheat noodle. Hae-Je-Kang was excellent in its quality even as high as 5% supplemental level. 3. The higher levels of supplementation were used the more sticky cooking products were obtained. Song-Pyun and wheat cake were palatable and lustrous in 2% supplementation level. 4. In drop cookie the higher levels of supplementation, the more crisp product was obtained, compared with other cookies. 5. Corn cake, thin rice gruel, rice gruel and potato Jeon-Byung were more excellent in their quality than potato Man-Doo and potato noodle. Corn cake, thin rice gruel and rice gruel were excellent even as high as 5% supplementation level. 6. In several cooking Porducts some seaweed-oder was perceived in case of 3% or more levels of supplementation. This may be much diminished by the use of proper condiments. D. Sanitary test It seems that there is no any heavy metals (Cd, Pb, As, Hg) problem in these seaweed Powders in case these Powders are used as supplements to any cereal flours E. Economical analysis The price of the seaweed powder is lower than those of other cereals and that may be more lowered when mass production of the seaweed powder is made in future. The supplement of the seaweed powder to any cereals is also economical with the criterion of animal growth rate. F. It is recommended that these seaweed powders should be developed and used as supplement to any cereal flours or used as other food material. By doing so, both saving of cereals and improvement of individual's nutrition will greatly be achieved. It is also recommended that the feeding experiment for men would be conducted in future.

This study investigated quality characteristics of wet noodles with addition of paprika powder prepared by different cultivars, freeze dried Special paprika powder (FDSP) and freeze dried Fiesta paprika powder (FDFP) at 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0% based on flour source, respectively. The wet noodles containing paprika powder exhibited higher values for cooked weight, volume, water absorption, and turbidity. When the amount of FDSP increased, the Hunter L (lightness) value of cooked noodles decreased but a (redness) value and b (yellowness) value increased. When the amount of FDFP increased, the Hunter L (lightness) and a (redness) value of cooked noodles decreased but b (yellowness) value increased. From textural properties measured by a texture analyzer, the noodles with paprika powder were significantly lower in hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and chewiness than those of 100% wheat noodle. The results of sensory evaluation of cooked noodles containing paprika powder indicated that the cooked noodles with 1.0% paprika powder showed the highest value.

A study was conducted to investigate the effects of rice bran dietary fiber on wheat flour rheology and wet noodle quality. More than 99% of rice bran dietary fiber contained smaller particle size than $250\;{\mu}m$. The initial pasting temperature, peak and final viscosities in amylograph, and the water absorption and dough stability in farinograph increased with the increase of rice bran dietary fiber concentration. The lightness values decreased with the increase of rice bran dietary fiber concentration in raw noodles as well as cooked noodles. The addition of rice bran dietary fiber was not effective on the cooked weight and volume of cooked noodles. However, the cooking loss of cooked noodles was the highest in control, and increased with the increase of rice bran dietary fiber concentration. Most of texture parameters (hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess and chewiness) of cooked noodles increased, but the cohesiveness decreased with the increase of rice bran dietary fiber concentration. There were no significant differences in appearance, taste and acceptability of cooked noodles between control and noodles containing 3% and 6% rice bran dietary fiber.

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the quality properties of noodles added with germinated non-waxy (Saesalbori) and waxy (Saechalbori) barley flours at concentrations of 10%, 20% and 30% to wheat flour. The quality characteristics of the samples were assessed for color, cooking characteristics (water absorption, volume increase of noodles and turbidity of cooking water), texture profile analysis (TPA) and sensory evaluation. Regarding the cooking properties of the noodles, adding waxy barley flour did not affect cooking yield and volume increase significantly(p<0.05), but noodles added with germinated Saesalbori at level of 10% had the lowest values of cooking yield and volume increase. Adding both types of flour increased the turbidity of the noodle soups. There was a common downward trend in $L^*$ and $b^*$ values and upward trend in $a^*$ value when increasing the level of barley used progressively. Adding germinated Saechalbori decreased the hardness, springiness and gumminess of noodles but did not cause any change in cohesiveness significantly while adding germinated Saesalbori decreased all the TPA parameters of the samples. Furthermore, the sensory analysis results showed that cooked noodles with 10% added germinated barley had no significantly different overall acceptance from the control sample. 20% substitution still resulted in acceptable sensory qualities. However treatment with both the substituted flours up to 30% was shown to cause unpleasant sensory qualities of noodles.

Sodium is a necessary element for the body. Excessive intake of sodium is known as one of the risk factors for chronic diseases. Recently, increasing numbers of people in Korea are suffering from chronic diseases. Major causes of deaths were chronic degenerative disease with the rising aging population. Especially, the population of rural areas is growing older fast. In rural areas, it is known that under nutrition and high sodium intake were major nutritional problems. For sodium intake, there were some studies about contributing food items. They were not enough to show diets relate to sodium intakes. Thus, this study analyzed dishes contributing to sodium intakes of elderly living in rural areas. Dietary intakes using "the 24hour recall method" were used. For the analysis for sodium intakes, "Can-pro3.0" was used. Ranking of dishes by contributions of sodium intakes were Korean cabbage, kimchi (19.6%), seasoned soybean paste (5.3%), soybean paste (4.6%), soybean paste soup dried radish leaves (3.5%), hot pork and kimchi stew (3.4%) in order. Ranking of dish groups by sodium intakes was kimchies (28.3%), soup and hot soups (22.8%), stews and casseroles (9.7%), seasonings (8.2%),and seasoned vegetables (6.0%) in order. One-dish meals among cooked rice, wheat noodles among noodle and mandu, soups using the soybean paste, stews using soybean paste and kimchi, salted fish among grilled foods, stir-fried anchovy among stir-fried foods, seasoned spinach, and Korean cabbage kimchi contributed to sodium intakes. As the nutrition deficiency of the elderly living in rural areas could be a problem, and excessive sodium intakes is threatening to their health, it is needed for the senior citizens to have adequate knowledge for diets containing less sodium. And recipes for healthy food and nutrition education based on their diets are needed.
